🛒 Ingredients
For the Cookies
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Cream the Butter & Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This creates the perfect base for chewy cookies.
2️⃣ Add Wet Ingredients
Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
3️⃣ Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing!
4️⃣ Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
5️⃣ Chill the Dough
For thicker cookies, refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes. This helps control spread while baking.
6️⃣ Bake to Perfection
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the sheet, spacing them apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
7️⃣ Cool & Enjoy
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or store for later!
🌟 Pro Tips & Variations
- For extra gooey cookies, use chocolate chunks instead of chips.
- Prefer crispy edges? Bake a minute longer for a slight crunch.
- Want a richer flavor? Add ½ tsp cinnamon for a subtle warmth.
